Learn the goals of fuel gauging and the different ways in which it can be achieved. The advantages and disadvantages of different types of gauging are discussed as well as how to implement a fuel gauge.

Learn about Texas Instruments’ patented Impedance TrackTM technology and the advantages it offers. In addition it will outline the overall benefits of fuel gauging and the consequences of not implementing gauging correctly within your system.

Two-part presentation on trends in baThis two-part presentations discusses current and future trends in battery technology, specifically how choices in materials affect voltages and battery capacity, e.g., modern electrolytes and the newest overlithiated layered oxides (OLO). We also take a brief look at future chemistries that offer the highest theoretical energy densities in batteries.ttery technology. How choices in materials affect voltages and battery capacity.

One of the most often overlooked design component in electronic systems is the PCB, which is as critical as any other component. Designers should use the same care with PCBs as with IC and FET switch designs. In this two-part lecture, we cover PCB electrical characteristics (AC and DC parasitics, grounds) and thermal characteristics (conduction and convection concepts).
